Vertical Horizon Unreleased Songs Lyrics
1.Best I Ever Had

Vertical Horizon
Everything You Want
Best I Ever Had
So you sailed away
Into a grey sky morning
Now I'm here to stay
Love can be so boring

Nothing's quite the same now
I just say your name now

Chorus
But it's not so bad
You're only the best I ever had
You don't want me back
You're just the best I ever had

So you stole my world
Now I'm just a phony
Remembering the girl
Leaves me down and lonely

Send it in a letter
Make yourself feel better

Chorus
But it's not so bad
You're only the best I ever had
You don't need me back
You're just the best I ever had

And it may take some time to
Patch me up inside
But I can't take it so I
Run away and hide
And I may find in time that
You were always right
You're always right

So you sailed away
Into a grey sky morning
Now I'm here to stay
Love can be so boring

What was it you wanted
Could it be I'm haunted

Chorus
But it's not so bad
You're only the best I ever had
I don't want you back
You're just the best I ever had
The best I ever had
The best I ever


2.You're God

===============================
Vertical Horizon - You're God
===============================

I've gotta be honest
I think you know
We're covered in lies and that's okay
And there's somewhere beyond this, I know
But I hope I can find the words to say

Never again, no...
No, never again...

'Cause you're a god
And I am not
And I just thought
That you would know
You're a god
And I am not
And I just thought
I'd let you go

But I've been unable
To put you down
I'm still learning things I ought to know by now
It's under the table, so
I need something more to show, somehow

So, never again, no...
No, never again...

'Cause you're a god
And I am not
And I just thought
That you would know
You're a god
And I am not
And I just thought
I'd let you go

I've got to be honest
I think you know
We're covered in lies and that's okay
There's somewhere beyond this, I know
But I hope I can find the words to say

Never again, no...
No, never again...

'Cause you're a god
And I am not
And I just thought
That you would know
You're a god
And I am not
And I just thought
I'd let you go

You're a god
(Oh, and I am not)
I just thought that you would know...
(Oh, I thought that you would know)

You're a god
(Oh, and I am not)
I just thought
I'd let you go

5.Goodbye Again

Lyricist:Matthew B. Scannell

I'm on the outside, looking in what do I see?
So much of this left to begin where would I be?
I'm on the outside, looking in

Cover me through this night

I guess I don't know what's, left to say but hear me out
All of the dreams of, yesterday keep breaking me down
What's on the outside, can you say

Or am I getting carried away

It's in your mind, it's in your eyes
So it's goodbye again
It's way past time for one last try
So it's goodbye again, goodbye again

I'm getting on, what's the use you know how I get
I can't decide which is the truth at least not yet
I got the feeling, that it's you oh what can be said

Alone in this room, no

It's in your mind, it's in your eyes
So it's goodbye again
It's way past time for one last try
So it's goodbye again

Who wants you now?
Maybe somebody else I'll wait around
Maybe you'll forget you were ever here
Maybe forget you were ever, never here

I'm on the outside, looking down what do I see?
So much of this cold, in the ground where would I be?
On the outside, looking down

Cover me before you go

It's in your mind, it's in your eyes
So it's goodbye again
It's way past time for one last try
So it's goodbye again

You're falling out, I'm falling in
So it's goodbye again
It's way past time for one last try
So it's goodbye again

It's in your mind, it's in your eyes
So it's goodbye again
It's way past time for one last try
So it's goodbye again


6.Gray Sky Morning

Lyricist:Matthew B. Scannell

So you sailed away into a gray sky morning
Now I'm here to say, love can be so boring
Nothing's quite the same, now I'm just saying hey now
But it's not so bad, you're only the best I ever had
You don't want me back, you're just the best I ever had

So you stole my world, now I'm just a phony
Remembering the girl leaves me down and lonely
You send it in a letter, make yourself feel better
But it's not so bad, you're only the best I ever had
You don't need me back, you're just the best I ever had

If they take some time to patch me up inside
And I can't take it, so I run away and hide
I might find in time that you were always right
You're always right

So you sailed away into a gray sky morning
Now I'm here to say, love can be boring
What was it you wanted, could it be unwanted
But it's not so bad, you're only the best I ever had
I don't want you back, you're just the best I ever had
The best I ever had, the best I ever


7.Underwater

Lyricist:Matthew B Scannell

You and I are here, underwater
Seconds are so dear, underwater
I'm searching for a light to draw me closer
I hold my breath in tight, bring me closer

I feel your touch, will you pull me up again?

It's not so bad down here, underwater
Once you get past the fear, underwater
Since you through the haze, it's like a memory
I've been down here for days, have you seen me?

I feel your touch, will you pull me up again?

It's all the same to me, underwater
There's nothing much to see, underwater
I cannot make a sound but I can listen
I can't tell up from down, now I'm listenin'

I feel your touch, will you pull me up again?
You're just in sight, will you save my life again?

It's all wrong, it's all wrong
You and I are here, underwater


8.It's Over

Lyricist:Matthew B. Scannell

I'm here, wide awake again
This fear is something I call a friend, hello again
It's been a while since I saw you here
I don't remember you say goodbye, no

It don't matter it's over
Here I've been waiting
All my life, all this time

It don't matter it's over
Here I've been waiting
All my life, all this time

Here we go, jump to the stars above
So low, why do I fall to love? Hello, my love
This voice never called your name
This boy would never be the same, no

It don't matter it's over
Here I've been waiting
All my life, all this time

It don't matter it's over
Here I've been waiting
All my life, all this time

Don't let it end up this way
Don't spend another night afraid
Don't let it end up this way, hey yeah

It don't matter it's over
Here I've been waiting
All my life, all this time

It don't matter it's over
Here I've been waiting
All my life, all this time
All this time

I'm here, wide awake again


9.I'm Still Here

Lyricist:Matthew B. Scannell

I found the pieces in my hand
They were always there
It just took some time for me to understand

You gave me words I just can't say
So if nothing else
I'll just hold on while you drift away

'Cause everything you wanted me to hide
Is everything that makes me feel alive

The cities grow, the rivers flow
Where you are, I never know
But I'm still here

If you were right and I was wrong
Why are you the one who's gone
And I'm still here? Still here

I've seen the ashes in my heart
I smile the widest
When I cry inside and my insides blow apart

I tried to wear another face
Just to make you proud
Just to make you put me in my place

But everything you wanted from me
Is everything that I could never be

The cities grow, the rivers flow
Where you are, I never know
But I'm still here

If you were right and I was wrong
Why are you the one who's gone
And I'm still here?

Maybe tonight
It's gonna be alright
I will get better

Maybe today
It's gonna be okay
I will remember

I held the pieces of my soul
I was shattered
And I wanted you to come and make me whole

Then I saw you yesterday
But you didn't notice
And you just walked away

'Cause everything you wanted me to hide
Is everything that makes me feel alive

The cities grow, the rivers flow
Where you are, I never know
But I'm still here

If you were right and I was wrong
Why are you the one who's gone
And I'm still here?

The lights go out, the bridges burn
Once you're gone, you can't return
But I'm still here

Remember how you used to say
I'd be the one to run away
But I'm still here

I'm still here
I'm still here


10.Forever

Lyricist:Matthew B. Scannell

Take these roses off of me
Let me live, let me be for a little while
Let my eyes see everything
And nothing in their time I do not mind

Who would've guessed I'd have learned
To let the walls around me burn
Light up the hillside my words, I ate them for so long
And nothing changed it was just the same

And I don't know if you see me here
But I can tell you your face is clear
I will see you forever, forever
I will see you forever, forever

Call me close once again
Call me teacher, call me friend just like the first time
Call my name, it echoes in the walls
Around this room it's all you

I don't know if you hear me there
When it's darkest, no one cares
I will hear you forever, forever
I will hear you forever, forever

I wanted you to be everything to me
Now I've got to learn to carry on
I know I cannot hide, this emptiness inside
But nothing is the same since you've gone

Send me letters from above
Send me strength, send me love
Such sweet love, sing me songs that echo in my head
And in my heart that's where you are

And I don't know if you feel me here
I can tell you one thing is clear
I will feel you forever, forever
I will feel you forever, forever
I will hear you forever, forever
I will see you forever, forever

Take these roses off of me
Let me live, let me be


11.Won't Go Away

Lyricist:Matthew B Scannell

Dear baby, baby won't you?
I go crazy, crazy for you
Won't you tell me, tell me what to do?
I go crazy, crazy for you

'Cause the way you look at me
I can say you set me free
And no matter what you say
I won't go away, I won't go away

I see your world, the world is you
I see baby, baby blue
Everyday is a day to get through
Till I see baby, baby blue

And the way you look at me
I can say you set me free
And no matter what you say
I won't go away, I won't go away

And it takes such a long time to get through this
Such a long time to find this kiss
And I can't forget it, I'm not ready yet

And I came such a long way from where you are
Now I'm falling from this star
And I can't forget it, I'm not ready yet

'Cause the way you look at me
I can say you set me free
And no matter what you say
I won't go away, I won't go away

Heal me, baby, baby won't you?
I go crazy, crazy for you
Won't you tell me, tell me something new?
I am crazy, crazy for you
I am crazy, crazy for you
I am crazy, crazy for you


12.Inside

Lyricist:Matthew B. Scannell

We're all lost
We're all found
We're all the same

Just one heart
Beats in us
We're different names

Just one heart
Oh, different names

Oh me, inside you
'Cause I wanna be
Inside you
Inside you

Take this hand, lift me up
Into your sky
Oh, hold me here

It's just you and me
'Cause you make me fly
Oh, you make me fly

Oh me, inside you
'Cause I wanna be
Inside you
Inside you

We're all lost
We're all found
We're all the same

Oh me, inside you
'Cause I wanna be
Inside you
Inside you

Hold me
Inside you
'Cause I wanna be
Inside you

Oh, inside you
Oh, inside you


13.Sunshine

Lyricist:Matthew B. Scannell

Sometimes I can't get enough, ooh, of you
This friendly game keeps getting rough
Think I'm breaking through

I cannot hide this well, this well as I should
There's always something left to tell
Tell me is it good?

I see you, do you see me, too?
Close your eyes and meet me in the sunshine
Come on through, I will find you
Close your eyes and meet me in the sunshine

I guess you chose a different road
That I am not aware
I got the one that's been closed
Shut down for repair

I hold a highway in my head
Ruling like a king
I drive away the things I've said
And I've said everything

I see you, do you see me, too?
Close your eyes and meet me in the sunshine
Come on through, I will find you
Close your eyes and meet me in the sunshine

Meet me in the sunshine
Come meet me in the sunshine

There's something better in this heat
Getting it on
I feel the warmth, I feel the greed
And I fear the fall

I hold this window wide enough
To keep the whole world
I want to spit out all this stuff
And keep the girl

I see you, do you see me too?
Close your eyes and meet me in the sunshine
Come on through, I will find you
Close your eyes and meet me in the sunshine

Come meet me in the sunshine
Come meet me in the sunshine


14.Your A God

Lyricist:Matthew B. Scannell

I've got to be honest, I think you know
I'm covered in lies and that's okay
There's somewhere beyond this, I know
But I hope, I can find the words to say
Never again, no, no, never again

'Cause you're a God and I am not
And I just thought that you would know
You're a God and I am not
And I just thought, I'd let you go

But I've been unable to put you down
I'm still learning things I ought to know by now
It's under the table so
I need something more to show somehow
Never again, no, no, never again

You're a God and I am not
And I just thought that you would know
You're a God and I am not
And I just thought, I'd let you go

I've got to be honest, I think you know
I'm covered in lies and that's okay
There's somewhere beyond this I know
I hope, I can find the words to say
Never again, no, no, never again

You're a God and I am not
And I just thought that you would know
You're a God and I am not
And I just thought, I'd let you go

You're a God and I am not
And I just thought that you would know
You're a God and I am not
And I just thought, I'd let you go


15.When You Cry

Lyricist:Matthew B Scannell

Heaven knows that you're with me now
Heaven knows that you're here
I feel your breath all around me now
And all the pain disappears, it goes away, it goes away

And it only hurts, when you cry
I'm only sad, when there's tears in your eyes
I can't lie and say, I'm fine
But it only hurts, when you cry

You carry too much on your shoulders
I can't wait till you let me down
'Cause the only thing we're getting is older
This time never comes back around, it just goes away, goes away

And it only hurts, when you cry
I'm only sad, when there's tears in your eyes
I can't lie and say, I'm fine
But it only hurts, when you cry, when you cry

Heaven knows that you're with me now and I'll do my best to hold
on
'Cause nothing is worth all this fighting now
And I won't give up, till it's gone
Make it go away, go away, make it go away, go away

'Cause it only hurts, when you cry
I'm only sad, when there's tears in your eyes
I can't lie and say, I'm fine
But it only hurts, when you cry
Hurts when you cry, when you cry


16.Better When You're Not There

Lyricist:Matthew Scannell

It's good to see your face in the morning
It helps me to face the day
I see you lighting candles as I turn away

I want you, I need you
In a way that confuses me
But it's good to hold you
But it's better when you're not there

It's better when you're not there
It's better when I don't care
About the things you say
In the world's worst way
It's better when you're not there

But somehow it waits till the morning
I feel your eyes on me
It's a such a perfect moment
It almost sets me free

I wanted to keep you holding
In while you're pulling away
It's good to know you
But it's better when you're not there

It's better when you're not there
It's better when I don't care
About the things you say
In the world's worst way
It's better when you're not there
It's better when you're not there

It's good to see your face in the picture
It's amazing what I miss
It's always right in the moment
When you're colored by your kiss

I wanted to tell you
There are times when I think of your face
It's good to know you
But it's better you're not there

It's better when you're not there
It's better when I don't care
About the things you say
In the worlds worst way
It's better when you're not there
It's better when you're not there
